About us
CORA Dance Festival represents an important meeting point for contemporary dance and performing arts in the city of Taranto. International and local artists come together to explore new expressive possibilities and deepen their individual and collective research.
Through masterclasses and workshops, participants can immerse themselves in a training path that embraces the different aspects of contemporary performance, developing new creations under the direction of renowned choreographers. Creations are the culmination of this process, offering the public the opportunity to witness innovative works that are the result of continuous research.
CORA also stands out for its commitment to promoting emerging artists, giving them a stage to present their original works and dialogue with an international network of professionals in the sector.

Where are we?
Taranto, a hidden gem on Italy's southern coast, offers a unique blend of natural beauty, rich history, and a welcoming atmosphere for any dancer. Located on the Ionian Sea in Puglia, it’s known as 'the city of the two seas,' surrounded by the Mar Grande and Mar Piccolo bays. With its Mediterranean heritage, Taranto boasts historical sites and breathtaking views. Imagine waking up to the sound of the sea, with a beach right in the city center, just steps away from the dynamic festival activities. Plus, Taranto is known for its affordable prices.
